Description

The council capacity grant provided operating capacity to the Applegate Partnership. We have addressed key watershed issues including coho recovery, water quality and water quantity, upland fuels reduction and ecosystem health. In the past two years the Partnership has worked on challenging projects with multiple landowners, water users and partners on top of developing an outdoor education program not funded through this capacity grant. We have implemented 11 restoration projects, 7 technical assistance projects, continue to maintain and monitor numerous project sites, updated our website and strategic plan, completed 2 stakeholder projects reaching over 150 landowners and initiated 2 more stakeholder projects. We also continue to participate in numerous local and basin wide work groups, support two park committees and submitted over 28 grant applications.

Project Benefit

The APWC council capacity grants are our primary source of project development funding. We utilize these funds to communicate with landowners (if no other funding is available), work with our partners on designs, permits, prioritization, etc., and write additional grants to fund the technical assistance, continued stakeholder engagement, or restoration efforts for projects in our watershed.

Description of the Plan

This project supports local watershed councils by providing capacity to engage in salmonid recovery planning and coordination. The Recovery Plan(s) indicate state and local collaboration and partnerships, especially in the form of watershed councils, are needed to successfully implement Recovery Plan actions and refer to the Oregon Plan. The Oregon Plan for Salmon and Watersheds (1997) provides the governance structure for implementing restoration in Oregon and specifically charges these watershed councils with the task of developing and implementing watershed improvement projects. Additionally, the Oregon Plan indicates that, in order to complete these tasks, watershed councils require funding to provide for stable infrastructure and support for council activities.
